Unwind on our iconic terrace at Flames, where Johannesburg stretches out beneath you in a tapestry of treetops and golden light. Here, elevated dining meets effortless elegance as fresh, seasonal ingredients are transformed through the purity of open‑flame cooking.

Savour sundowners that glow as beautifully as the skyline, linger over dishes inspired by the flavours and spirit of the city, and discover the joy of gathering in a space where every moment feels expansive.

For life’s more intimate celebrations, our private dining spaces offer a refined setting, thoughtful, inviting, and designed to make every occasion unforgettable.

    We chose the Westcliff because it was my late son in law's favorite place and it was his daughter's 15th birthday. The new refurbishment is really lovely ~ the staff are a delight and the dining area is perfect. It's taken me a few days to send this review because I needed to ask everyone in our 7 pax party their opinions. I was sadly disappointed with my pork belly ~ I didn't feel it had been cooked that day ~ my husband said his lamb shank was okay ~ my three daughters all left most of their chicken salads and the steak one too. The only one who said he was happy was my grandson with his T-bone and Mac n Cheese. He is a sports boy so will eat anything. My granddaughter had a Mexican dish and ate it without complaints ~ but it was three small mouthfuls and she's a small eater. I am a chef and my one daughter owns a catering company so we like and know good food. Our celebration night didn't have any of it. I did appreciate your staff bringing my granddaughter a birthday treat dessert so thank you for that. I feel for the prices you charge the food could really be better. Maybe your menu is too big and attention can't be adequately paid to each dish.

    I had an excellent experience and would like to sincerely thank the chef and his team for accommodating our requests, particularly in catering to a guest with Celiac disease. I truly appreciate the outstanding service we received and look forward to returning in the future.

    Binary City (Pty) staff had an amazing experience at the Flames breakfast buffet. From arrivval, staff was extremely helpful and professional, making the experience not only memorable, but comfortable. Food and service was excellent. I personally would visit again.
